A microsatellite repeat in PCA3 long non-coding RNA is associated with prostate cancer risk and aggressiveness

Abstract Short tandem repeats (STRs) are repetitive sequences of a polymorphic stretch of two to six nucleotides. We hypothesized that STRs are associated with prostate cancer development and/or progression. We undertook RNA sequencing analysis of prostate tumors and adjacent non-malignant cells to...
